Recommended The Series: The fourth season of Comedy Central’s series Workaholics continues to follow the exploits of Blake Henderson (Blake Anderson), Adam DeMamp (Adam DeVine) and Anders Homvik (Anders Holm), a trio of roommates who work together in a call center for the TelAmeriCorp corporation.
Recommended Click on all images in this review for 1080p screenshtos Oh, the tortured life of Dragon Ball Z on home video. Despite being nearly 300 episodes after all was said and done, the original DVD’s trickled out with a paltry offering of 3-5 episodes per disc. Complete season sets were finally delivered in the ‘orange brick’ collection, but die-hard fans of the series began a ..
Recommended THE MOVIE: Please Note: The stills used here are taken from promotional materials and other sources, not the Blu-ray edition under review. There are moments of pure craziness in Sam Peckinpah’s 1974 bloodbath Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia .
Rent It C’mon, you know you had me at “Dutch zombie flick”. [click on the thumbnail to enlarge] The good news…? Aziz (Yahya Gaier) has finally landed a date with Tess (Nadia Poeschm…
Highly Recommended Flying Tigers (1942) is an impressive, still exciting example of early wartime propaganda. John Wayne, in his first war movie, stars as the leader of a squadron of mercenary pilots fighting the Japanese in the days before (and, late in the film, after) the attack on Pearl Harbor in a picture brimming with war movie clich s.
Highly Recommended The Movie: Growing up in a household with one parent who was an unabashed John Wayne fan, I grew to appreciate his work but in different ways.

Highly Recommended Joseph Anthony’s compelling Tomorrow (1972) is by no means a comfortable film, or at least it’s not supposed to be. Long stretches of silence are occasionally broken by awkward, thickly-accented dialogue. Shooting locations are rustic, run-down and lonely
Highly Recommended The Movie: Hitting Blu-ray a few short weeks before the 70th Anniversary of D-Day, director Stuart Cooper’s 1975 drama Overlord , which covers the lead-up to that famous battle at Normandy, is decidedly unsentimental, somewhat anticlimactic, yet undeniably beautiful. Starting with deftly edited archive footage from England’s Imperial War Museum, Cooper weaves in newly-shot …
Recommended Please Note: The stills used here are taken from promotional materials and other sources, not the Blu-ray edition under review. The Movie: World War II actioner, psychological drama, buddy flick, progressive if overly earnest “message picture” – 1949’s Home of the Brave juggles several things at once. It hasn’t lost its potency, however, in dealing with racism-induced guilt and shame …
